"The land of all" is obviously the real name of the Drake country. The song is mystical and the theme is the failed promise of a paradise that passes before his eyes, impossible to reach...
Sinistrar was crying when he saw his kingdom falling to pieces and he told each dragon on the manacom to flee. He didn't want a single dead dragon.
He spoke to the prisoners:"
My friends, my family, my children. You must escape! Escape! Everyone to the gate.
I'm going to activate the original artifact!
The original light will freeze time for an hour. You'll have to run away from everything in the meantime. There's no way we're fighting! Don't waste this sacrifice!
Your life is precious.! "
The dragons stood ready to give everything they had to escape.
They were chained in the holds of destroyers and aircraft carriers.
About a hundred had been captured. Some were injured. Some were drugged and knocked out.
Sinistrar Leaned on one of the control crystals in his war room and a giant astrolabe appeared, he adjusted the planets for today's time and looked at symbols measuring time and energy and then broke a gem that held a very bright diamond.
He placed it on a base.
Then he told Isaac: "If I activated this artifact I would be dead! He would draw all my mana until I died. But with the mana-generating atomic furnace, I will be able to amplify the power of the artifact. The energy inside could turn this planet into a sun.
Let's save our children!
A wave of primal light enveloped the room and then crossed the wall and like a wall of magic and mirror, like a tsunami, the wave instantly covered hundreds of kilometers, freezing everything in its path.
The dragons kept their freedom of movement.
When they saw that the humans were no longer moving that the machines had stopped, they understood that time had stopped. They had a thought for Sinistrar who probably had to sacrifice himself to allow them to flee.
They cut their chains, and melted the walls that held them prisoner. Then, helping each other, the most able-bodied took the less able-bodied and the unconscious.
All followed the orders of their emperor, who was not an emperor for nothing. He was saving his dragon people. The dragons fled as quickly as they could. The chronometer was running.
How long would the "Tear of Chronos" last? A few seconds, a few minutes...?
They had to get to the seaside as soon as possible and cross it. An hour passed, then half an hour, then another half an hour.

Sinistrar was concentrating on holding force fields to make the atomic furnace resist.
Isaac helped him by charging all the treasure gems into the plasma flame that devoured the crystals like a black hole. The Tear of Chronos was very energy-hungry and had to block time by the primary light it generated. The forces were of the global order in billions of joules.
Sinistrar raised the crystal and the temporal weapon stopped and by a miracle the tear was intact It could therefore still be used but Sinstrar did not want to try the fate of causing a definitive cataclysm. This relic from the time of the Gods was to be preserved and passed on to future emperors.
He saw the blue dots on his screen far away from the red dots that continued their mad rush to him.
Isaac says, "The weak point of modern equipment is electricity."
Sinistrar smiled and poured a handful of spare gems.
"This one I was saving for myself," and he put it in his mouth and gave one to Isaac: "Try it!"
Surprisingly, the gem melted in Isaac's mouth. Isaac was really a dragon! A raptor but a dragon!..
He felt the power invade him and a new strength!
Sinistrar: "Do you feel the magic in you? Welcome my child! You are officially a dragon now" And on the screen a new blue dot appeared.
"See, Isaac, the blue dot? It's you! It's you! Welcome to the world of the immortals!"
Come on, I'll show you other wonders of my people. It's the best kept secret. I will probably be the last emperor of the empire, but if you stay, your mission will be to protect this heritage.
Look, it's our ancestor Tiamat and her husband Malkuth. From their union were born the dragons.
But the other gods killed her and made the men of her corpse. Malkuth wanted revenge but was defeated in turn.
We dragons are from the stars of space. Our strength and resistance come from the fact that we know how to resist the extreme conditions of space. But we have lost the means to travel and we have lost the maps leading to our origins. We're stuck here.
This is the only artifact we have left from that time.
Isaac looked at the device, which was millions of years old: "It's a computer! An on-board computer and this structure is not a temple.... It's a spaceship!
A lost technology!
Isaac:'Men must not fall into this secret! God alone knows what an abomination it can contain that you can't control!"
Sinistrar: "Do you know this technology?"

Isaac: "A little bit but everything is at least 1000 to 2000 years ahead of us! It may take us a century to understand how everything works. Or there must be artificial intelligence. There must be an atomic reactor in there.
Sinistrar descended into the immense bowels of the ship and Isaac showed an extinct sphere.It's the nuclear reactor!if we activate it, it could be catastrophic.
Isaac did not have time to finish that Sinistrar took the atomic furnace by telekinesis and placed it in the sphere.
Then panels closed and bands of light spread everywhere, turning on the systems and holograms showing the stars and a navigation map appeared, floating in the room.
A gigantic dragon appeared in the center with 5 heads and spoke in an unknown language. She cried with all her heads and showed our ship with golden eggs and all the colors in an incubator and a red green baby dragon.
She was proud of her girl. "Protect them, you are the sister but you'll be the mother in my place and you'll be the first dragon, the mother of all them. Now go live and be happy. Never comes back here!
All her heads give the dragonet a last kiss and a last blessing and put her smal child in the incubator.
Sleep weel my child. I love you (X5) My time is up but not yours
The dragonnet was shouting and crying Mum! on the other side of the glass before put to a long long slumber.
She was crying at her dragonet.
She licked them and kissed them like a mother who separated from her children to save them from a horrible death.
Then the dragon was corrupted and became as crazy as a zombie and in a last burst of lucidity pressed a button and the saucer left but part of the message said NEVER come back because of the waves of death????
Then we saw her break everything and rage, but crying. The message stopped there.
An Ai asked questions and analyzed the condition of the ship. Almost everything was in red.
Then a map with red dots indicating Japanese targets appeared.
The AI addressed Sinistrar who knelt before his "Goddess"
The ship, aware of the desperate situation in which its people were made the decision to hide the ship deeper into the bowels of the land of the dragons.
The ship entered repair mode and the whole thing sank. A door opened inviting us to leave the ship. The ship promised Sinistrar to save his people when it was repaired. Sinistrar then opened his personal space and emptied all his stones and gems and gold and inventory into the tank of the ship's converter. The materials and energy to repair it.
Thus the emerging part of the vessel, the cathedral sank into the ground and lava.
Sinistrar watched his palace, his house and his empire sink into the lava, out of reach of humans...
With tears in his eyes, he spread his large wings and flew away, taking away the 3 raptors that had remained. Under him, he saw his empire marching for the last time, so beautiful, so majestic.
He remembered his good times and tried to forget the bad ones. However, the new discovery brought hope to him. All was not lost! His revenge would be terrible!
Then, with the golden globe, he spoke to his people and told them what he had discovered to give them hope.
"My children, we still have to cross the sea but I don't want to lose any of you drowned! Get in touch. The tired will spread their wings drawn by the bravest and so on.
The brave dragons obeyed and so they succeeded.
In the sky you could see a gigantic migratory cloud of birds. A cloud like no other.
Whole families flying towards life, towards hope but also towards the unknown and danger....
What united them all was also fear, fear of a fate worse than death, fear of a fight they CANNOT lose. Never!
Some of the wounded began to weaken but all were in solidarity and the little ones and the big ones pushed their bellies upwards so that they would not lose altitude.
Then they arrive in sight of the coast and they exclaimed we passed but behind them black spots on the horizon were rushing at high speed.
Sinistrar, at the head of the great V formed by the cloud of dragons was beginning to despair..
"We won't make it!" he said crying....
Then in front of him reaction arrows that made noise rushed over them.
Sinistrar closed his eyes, waiting for the final blow when he heard the jet engines roar close by but on the planes he was marked with a star in a blue circle and wings. An eagle was on it. USAF????? USA? The allies.
There were hundreds of them flying towards the black spots on the horizon.
They stopped and turned around!
American planes returned to escort the poor exhausted dragons. Isaac had secretly broadcasted everything and the Americans were more than motivated to save the dragons from their woes.
Sinistrar cried even more but tears of hope.

Risen
Note: Slight edits to early chapters (and removal of one chapter - previously chapter 2) have been made 2/2/21 The city, my city, had once been alive in a way that was hard to describe. Thriving, active, hopeful. Vibrant. But life, as I had come to learn, sometimes possesses only the most tenuous of grasps. Finally, in the end, it became my city - mine alone. I was, after all, the only one left. Worse, it was entirely my fault. There was red in my ledger that could never be wiped clean. Not while I still lived, anyway. This story follows Eran, a man who became the opposite of everything he had ever wanted to be; in a world where superpowers began to appear in a rare few, his lack of control over his own power relegated him to the role of a terrible villain - the Reaper, named so for the countless lives that he absorbed and made his own, each only furthering his deadly lack of control. Gone mad with guilt and isolation, he strove for a single heroic act - his own demise. Death was less permanent than he hoped. Centuries later, he woke to a changed world and in a body not his own. Unfortunately, his power came with him. Yet this time, things would be different. This time, he had a chance to bring it under control. He could never truly make up for the things he had done; he could never achieve redemption. That wouldn't stop him from trying to be a hero. Cover courtesy of the amazing Vitaly S Alexius, author of Romantically Apocalyptic. Go check him out!
